KEY USES AND BENEFITS

Calpol 250mg Paediatric Oral Suspension Strawberry is used for the treatment of pain and fever in children. It effectively relieves headaches, migraines, toothache, sore throat, muscle aches, nerve pain, arthritis-related pain, and menstrual pain. The medicine also helps reduce fever by lowering body temperature, providing effective relief from discomfort and helping children recover more comfortably. When used as prescribed, it is a trusted and well-tolerated option for managing pain and fever.

COMPOSITION AND HOW IT WORKS

Calpol 250mg Paediatric Oral Suspension Strawberry contains Paracetamol as its active ingredient. It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, which are chemical messengers in the brain responsible for causing pain and fever. By reducing the production of these chemicals, the medicine helps relieve pain and lowers elevated body temperature.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Give Calpol 250mg Paediatric Oral Suspension Strawberry exactly as prescribed by your child's doctor. Shake the bottle well before use and measure the dose using a measuring cup. It may be given with or without food, although giving it after food is preferred to reduce stomach irritation. Administer the medicine at a fixed time each day whenever possible. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking the medicine, the same dose may be repeated after the child settles down, unless an allergic reaction has occurred.

SIDE EFFECTS

Calpol 250mg Paediatric Oral Suspension Strawberry is generally well tolerated in children. Some children may experience mild and temporary side effects such as indigestion, nausea, vomiting, or stomach pain. These effects usually improve as the body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist or become bothersome.

SAFETY ADVICE

Do not give Calpol 250mg Paediatric Oral Suspension Strawberry together with other medicines containing paracetamol, as this may increase the risk of overdose and liver damage. Inform your doctor if your child has any blood-related disorder, allergy to medicines, birth defects, liver impairment, or kidney dysfunction before starting treatment. Always follow the prescribed dose and duration, avoid exceeding the recommended dosage, and use the medicine only under medical guidance.
